I'm stopping the presses for this shit.

Monday night my friend in Texas bit into a banana and cringed. The banana was filled with a blood-like substance.

So I asked her what any of you would: has it been tampered with?

No. Not at all, she says.

So we start searching the internets for diseases or viruses that affect bananas.

Nothing.

We search for other references to bananas filled with a blood-like substance.

Nothing.

She calls the fruit company and they say it happens on occasion when bananas are dropped during harvesting and offer her five dollars and a letter of apology.

I tell her that doesn't sound right to me, call the USDA.

She does.

The USDA agent in Washington D.C. says nuh-uh, never heard of anything like this. We're going to investigate this further.

Here's my question: has science gone too fucking far. Will we all start opening fruits and finding various animal parts because scientists think it's a good idea to fuck with everything?


If I had to guess I'd say what happened here is genetic engineering gone wrong. I'd say it's a glimpse of the future. I'd say it's time to stop these sick cocksuckers before they finally do unleash a virus or create a mutation that kills us all.

Before I show you the pictures I will tell you my friend is of unimpeachable character and these pictures were taken minutes after she peeled the banana. Neither one of us has the desire or the ability to make up something like this.

I'm also going to be a prick and make you go to my site to see the pictures. Oh, boo-hoo, two clicks. When you get there just click the big yellow Mutant Banana link

Weird man. You're not Halloween punking us are you? Maybe someone injected strawberry jelly into the banana.

Hey that was my banana and I bought it at the grocery that day and most certainly did not inject it with anything.  The thing is in my freezer until I can get it looked at by someone with some kind of degree.

Keeping it in the freezer will just turn it to black ooze once it's thawed :(

I'm still looking for any validation concerning what the fruit company called "banana shock." Nothing. Dropping a banana would do this? I don't think so.

Are you familiar with the teachings of The Great Banana (Praise His Holy Peel!)  The Great Banana was revealed Himself when The Speaker, His servant, left a banana in his high school locker for several days.  Though the banana turned down, it did not become mushy!  It was then that The Speaker became aware of The Great Banana.

The Great Banana is the source of all that is good in the world.  He protects us from the Evil Slumbering Mushroom.

Therefore, I suggest two possibilities:

1. The Great Banana does not think you should butcher innocent bananas.
2. It's a fungus.  Eww.

Mike, are we seriously going to get to the point in human intellectual evolution where we respond to any stimulus by referring to a YOU Tube video or some clever but ultimately hollow story from the Onion?

This is a banana with what seems like animal tissue in it. 

Of course I did listen to Bananaphone earlier.

My guess is that it's some sort product of genetic engineering. Something we'll be seeing a lot more of in the future.

Sounds yummy to me! :D

Boo Hoo... It was three clicks away, plus an additional one if you want to see the pics in large format.
Looks like someone very delicately filled the banana with red goo... I can see the cavity in the center where a bit of a trench was gouged out and then injected with the red substance.
Of course, maybe bloody bananas have veins instead of solid banana-y centers.

Just goes to show you even fruits and vegetables are alive, Alive, ALIVE!!!!
I wonder what a vegan will do when we prove that produce has feelings, too?
Maybe they'll turn to cannibalism like zombies.
Oh, my mistake, you guys only eat brains and I guess that technically you are no longer human when you become all zombie-fied so you really aren't cannibals, are you?

Happy Halloween, bro!

Well. . . i hate to be the mystery dispeller here, but that banana is rotting from the inside out.  I've seen it a few times myself, with bananas and apples- they look fine on the outside, but you bite into some nastiness.  I usually took it back to the store and they gave me my money back.

Not much you can tell from a picture.  But i guarantee if you sent it to em, they'd tell you the same thing.

The only problem with that is if I get a product from Corporation X and I call Corporation X to report a compaint, I don't expect to hear anything resembling the truth.

There may be a simple explanation, but I'm not going to take Corporation X's word for it. The USDA is already investigating.

It's not a simple explanation if the fruit and vegetable specialist at the USDA in Washington D.C. sees the picture and says "I don't know what this is."

If it's rotting fruit, it's rotting fruit. I'd just like to one example or story about it on the entire internets. There isn't one. I take your story to heart and assume it to be true, but no one else in the world, except Corporation X seems to think it's just a case of "banana shock."

I've seen a rotten fruit before.  Even a rotten banana.  But the lady at the fruit company specifically said me "just google it, you'll find lots of information on banana shock" well I've been looking for days now and haven't seen found anything.  Now we ALL know about rotten apples and rotten tomatoes and mushy brown bananas and bad potatoes.  But why haven't we ever heard of banana shock?! Not the lady at the USDA not the local State Ag Dept., not the local Ag Dept. and everyone that ever looked at the picture now over the last 3 days.  I mean really What The What?!
